David - "ordered" says that the subjects of the and clause need to occur in the order specified. So "ordered" of "cat", "dog" says that "cat" has to occur before "dog". There is only one paragraph (the target of your search, per the first parameter) that matches this criteria, so only paragraph is returned.
